Kirkus reviews THE LAST FAERIE QUEEN!!!

As you may recall, Kirkus had some lovely things to say about The Last Changeling. Now, they've returned to review The Last Faerie Queen (the second and final book in the YA duology) and I'm thrilled to share their thoughts! The middle of the review got a little spoilery, so I've separated it into the descriptive passage and several of my favorite quotes. THE LAST FAERIE QUEEN Author: Chelsea PitcherPublisher: FluxPublication Date: November 8, 2015“In this sequel to The Last Changeling (2014), set entirely in Faerie, faerie princess and revolutionary Elora, supported by Taylor and a handful of other human stalwarts, continues her mission to free the faerie underclass as conflict between Bright and Dark intensifies. Relying on the Seelie Court to help free her people from her mother's brutal regime, Elora lays her plans. Shorn of her wings, she finds comfort and healing in Taylor's arms as they prepare for the struggles ahead; making and learning to use new weapons keep the humans occupied. As the plot shifts from Seelie to Unseelie realms, the plot grows increasingly violent—humans are tortured...limbs are hacked off."
